Formed in 1861, Company F of the Confederate Army’s Twenty-first Texas regiment was recruited almost entirely from Brenham and Washington County. The unit was active in scouting and reconnaissance in the trans-Mississippi theater during the Civil War.

The Twenty-first Texas Regiment, Company F Roster, 1917, comprises a typewritten roster about the Confederate Army unit during the Civil War as well as a letter regarding the history of the unit and Brenham, Texas.

Basic processing and cataloging of this collection was supported with funds from the National Historical Publications and Records Commission (NHPRC) for the Briscoe Center’s History Revealed: Bringing Collections to Light project, 2009-2011.
